He is author of the play, Time and the Rock.

Hammack was the founding Artistic/Producing Director of Horse Cave Theatre in which capacity he served for twenty-five years. In 1995 he was awarded the Kentucky Governor’s Award for Lifetime Achievement in the Arts.

Warren began his Equity acting career as “Job” in the acclaimed 1962 Off-Broadway production of The Book of Job. On stage, he performed major roles opposite three Academy Award winners: Jon Voight (Polonius to Jon’s Hamlet), Burl Ives, and Peggy Wood.

Among Warren’s favorite stage roles are: Willy Loman in Death of a Salesman, Prospero in The Tempest, Joe Keller in All My Sons, C.S.Lewis in Shadowlands, Lear in King Lear, Drummond in Inherit the Wind, and Vladimir in Waiting for Godot.
